[Resolved] Kingfisher Airlines — Refund of Voucher issued in lieu of cancellation of tickets. | |
gaurav.[protected]@flykingfisher.com; [protected]@flykingfisher.com Dear Sir, I had to bring to this your attention, since was not able to breakthrough through the same / not getting a proper response so far. Require your personal intervention in the same. The case: As per the chain of the mails below mentioned – my communication has been extremely clear that I would look forward for re validating the voucher issued to me, but in spite of repeated mails am not able to get a valid response and the customer friendly attitude- customer first thing does not seem to come across. I have also gone through the circular issued by the Civil Aviation authorities (point 3.F) and drawn the attention of your staff members towards the same. My request has been to re validate / re issue the voucher, so that I do avail of your services and should not be penalized for canceling a ticket. Am sure you would appreciate the fact that since the voucher is not transferable, I only have to travel- and I would travel only when it is required. Surely I would not avail of any leave and go to a destination just to avail the voucher. You may also want to consider the option of refunding the same. The intention of encouraging me to use your services or an attempt to do so has not reflected so far. Going by the book and snapping the relation is the simplest thing that one can do. I know for sure that an organization of your stature and repute is brand conscious and customer friendly, quite surprisingly the responses received are contradictory. My sincere hope is that this incident should not deter my patronage towards a particular service provider. Awaiting for a positive response from your end.

But as stated earlier by me, I have not traveled, did not have to, so no question of me availing your services, my simple request was to have this re validated which the call center mentioned that can be done by writing a mail. I am not able to understand why would an airline company have such non- friendly norms. To avail of this I have to take a leave and go to some destination, which I have not done so far and no one would plan a trip just to avail of this voucher. By revalidating you would be actually encouraging me to avail of the services provided by you. It would be very easy to snap up relationship and go by the book. Am sure I would hear from you at the earliest about revalidating the same.

With regards to your query, we would like to inform you that the voucher is non-transferable and non refundable.However, refund cannot be processed against a expired voucher. We regret we won't be able to assist you further. Best regards, Lisha Prakash Guest Commitment Deccan --- Original Message --- CC: Lisha, Well Lisha, I appreciate and respect your policy but you do need to understand that if I have not traveled in the near past because there was no reason, just to avail of the voucher issued to me I would not travel. Also the vouchers are not transferable which again is a pain factor. If the same would have been transferable I would not have even bothered you. When referring to the terms and conditions these do form a standard set of terms and conditions and when I have decided to travel, least would be the chances of me canceling the traveler would not go through as rigorously, and other service provider GOAIR has refunded me the money for the trip that I booked from Mumbai to Delhi. Hence I request you to kindly understand the situation and do work out a solution. As it really does not make sense to lose out on a amount for something that I have not availed of. There should be some cancellation fee etc and the remaining money be refunded to the customer. Please confirm the action.

Guest Commitment - Deccan Dear team This is in reference to my booking I had done for a flight from Delhi to Mumbai on 26 Jan 08. I am based in Mumbai and unfortunately due to some reasons I could not make to Delhi and hence the trip from Delhi had to be cancelled. I have not been able to travel since then. I was given the option of redeeming and a voucher no RMD7ZN was provided to me. This voucher seemingly had a validity of 6 months which expired on 23 Jul 08. On calling the call center on 13 Aug 08, to book a ticket my request was turned down mentioning that they would not be able to revalidate nor take the request for refunding the money. I have been advised to write a mail to you, hence the mail to you for the refund. Please find mentioned the relevant details: Voucher No: RMD7ZN Pin no: 9N532X Amount Rs.2199/- My sincere request to you would be to refund the money since I have not availed of any flight services from you as a service provider. Request to confirm the action. Regards, Shankar Enduri Was this information helpful? | |
